| Abstract: | Background Loss of photosynthesis has occurred independently in several plant and algal lineages, and represents a major metabolic shift
with potential consequences for the content and structure of plastid genomes. To investigate such changes, we sequenced the
complete plastid genome of the parasitic, non-photosynthetic green alga, Helicosporidium. |
